Whenever I have to bring food to an event, I always offer to bring a savory food, and I always bring the same thing.  My favorite recipe has three ingredients, takes less than half an hour to make and is deliciously simple.

I took this recipe to a Halloween party last week, and it was a hit, as always. Let me say in advance that it’s not pretty to look at. But once you taste it, you won’t care one bit about how it looks!

Ingredients:
1 Pint Grape Tomatoes
8 oz. Log Goat Cheese
Balsamic Vinegar

Directions:
Form the log of goat cheese into a ball, and place it in the center of a 9×13 or smaller baking dish. Cut the tomatoes in half and place them cut-side down on the dish, covering all of the area that’s not covered by the cheese. Now, pour balsamic vinegar over the cheese and tomatoes up to about 1/4  of the way up the tomatoes. The amount of vinegar depends on the size of the pan, so just eyeball it.

Bake at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes or until the goat cheese is fallen and bubbly and the tomatoes have that yummy roasted look and have absorbed most of the vinegar. Be sure to let it cool a little before serving because this thing gets seriously hot.

Serve with bagel chips for the perfect appetizer!
